Every bout's base points are multiplied by the level of the event. The KBN Ranking Committee sets the level of every sanctioned event and can reduce the multiplier for a specific event.

×1.0National
×1.5International Open
×2.0Continental
×3.0World Championship

A KO win at a national championship is worth (5 + 20 + 5) × 1.0 = 30 points. The same win at the World Championship is worth (5 + 20 + 5) × 3.0 = 90 — three home wins.


Events submitted by applicants have no level until HQ sets one; until then those bouts score 0 and cannot be approved.

The 50% time value after 12 months is fair.
